Today my droid reached to 143 F while at work.

I recently DLed nemo player and '3' the cube music player. I am overclocked to 800 max 250 min.

The only other thing I have done recently is add a new nexus one background by way of an update.zip.

please help! This has never happened to me before.

Are you using setcpu, and do you have profiles setup? Because you should, both. :D

What's your failsafe set at? (Temp, speed, and governor)

Try out a different kernel, some run cooler. I'm using Bekit's and my droid never goes over 100F.

You might try another kernel as jco suggested. I like my failsafe set a bit lower, since 50C is 122F. I might also recommend using the conservative governor, just because it's less stressful on the CPU. You'll experience a little but of lag, but it's better than frying the CPU...

I'm using Bekits 1Ghz and mine got to 135 today. I have profiles set but you cannot set a cpu profile, just battery temp. It happens when I do tethering and charging at the same time. i just strapped it to a fan and cooled it down quick. If possible you can turn it off and let it cool down
